Brown makes us better than either Weid or TMac and so comes in for one of them. I’d keep TMac after tonight. But it’s not an easy decision between the two. 

Keep a watch out on two others though: Lever looked proppy after the game, boots off and limping. No ice from what I could see. And ANB was also limping, and I think maybe had an injury issue this week?

    I thought Trac looked ok not sure y’all getting the looked injured . He was jumping for marks and exploding out of stoppages. I think he’ll be ok.

    In: Brown 

    Out: Tmac

    There is no chance we will make a change after such a dominant performance. Weid was good he will need a drop of form and Brown to play well in the 2's for Brown to get his spot back. Sorry Ben but you are definitely playing in the 2's next week,. A great problem to have.

    BBB is EASILY superior a player to T.Mac or Weeds... none of which.. ah are in any form to speak of so therefore getting rid of sentiment or try hard or anything else... just play our very best side every week

    BBB IN...EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK!

    Ben Brown in is a no brainer, I could make a argument for for dropping both Wied and Tmac, why not both and give Mitch Brown a call up.

    Ben Brown is the most overrated player on demonland. I will put my house on it that he won't play against the tigers.

    This should be the shortest thread ever. We won by 67 points. 
     

    No change.

    With all due respect. I couldn't disagree any more. Weideman doesn't take the spot of Ben Brown, one of our most important players, just because he played 1 good game 3 weeks ago. Using the same logic, Tomlinson would've stayed in the team and kept Petty out despite Petty being the much better player.

    In: Ben Brown
    Out: Weideman

    Weideman is widely regarded on demonland as being a player that is playing for his career and yet somehow he is still overrated.

    In  BBB, JVR

    Out  TMAC, WEID

    If JVR plays well tomorrow 

    Probably too early for JVR but I like what I see from him, his body looks ready for AFL, Surely he is eyeing off a spot in the one's.

    Weird needs to lead. Too often he was just jogging back inside 50 when he should have been sprinting back.

    Especially in the first half, the ball was kicked so often to Weid and he just didn't succeed.

    I thought I saw ANB cop a nasty cork from the big GWS ruckman in a marking contest.  Ran out the game so hopefully will be fine to go next week.

    Out... this ridiculous showing dissent 50 rule. What is this??? It is the stuff of fifties and sixties schoolyard discipline. A player not even on the mark throws his hands up in mild frustration and gets pinged for 50?? Come on. Happy to have a verbal 50 rule but this is outrageous. AFL need to get rid of this blight on the game. Are we trying to take the human element of frustration totally away? What next? DREAM POLICE pinging blokes for facial expressions depicting dissent?? Get rid of it!

    Let me know where I pick the keys up from. Listen to Goody’s press conference and read between the lines and I suggest Weid stays to partner Benny. That would be the change I would make as well.

    Last year, Hunt lost his place in the team and couldn't get it back. We have to reward form. As good as BBB is, he has to now wait just like he had to last year.  He makes us a better side but our forward line clicked into top gear last night and it looked very, very good.

    No change. Unless Lever is still limping today.

    It's funny, my reading of those comments were, Sam that's what you need to keep doing - that's tbe standard of contest.

    And when you go back to Casey keep focusing on those things - don't get down, you're on the right track.

    I rate him as capable of kicking three in a GF when it’s an actual game. And reality rates him that way too.

    And get ready to hand over your keys. Perhaps Demonland should get your house? Imagine the servers this thing could run on with $200k? $300k? What are we looking at here?

    My reading was, competition is tight and we haven’t decided yet.

    Brown will come in for one of them, but I don’t know how you’d decide which. I thought Weid looked more dangerous aerially, but TMac was crucially involved in a lot of scoring passages. I thought both were good. It’ll probably be Weid but I can see reason in all the possible options.

    Weid did some really good things last night. He was playing BBB role to a tee and got up the ground regularly, even brought the ball to the ground. 

    He was a F50 target on many occasions but didn't clunk a few he should have.

    He will be stiff but he ain't no BBB sadly.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
